Against the Plex Price Hike and the End of Free Streaming
The Issue
Attention Plex users and media enthusiasts!
We, the undersigned, are deeply concerned about the upcoming changes to Plex, our beloved media server platform. On April 29, 2025, Plex will implement a substantial price increase across all its subscription tiers, significantly impacting our ability to manage and access our personal media libraries.
We urge Plex to reconsider these changes for the following reasons:
1. The lifetime Plex Pass will more than double in price, from $119.99 to $249.99, making it unaffordable for many loyal users.
2. Monthly and annual subscriptions will also see significant increases, with monthly rates rising from $4.99 to $6.99 and annual rates jumping from $39.99 to $69.99.
3. Remote streaming, a crucial feature for many users, will become a paid-only feature, restricting access to our own content stored on our personal hardware.
4. These changes represent a fundamental shift in Plex's business model, potentially alienating its core user base of home media enthusiasts.
While we understand the need for companies to adjust their pricing structures, we believe these increases are too drastic and sudden. We call on Plex to:
- Reconsider the magnitude of the price hikes, especially for the lifetime subscription.
- Maintain remote streaming as a free feature for personal media libraries.
- Provide a longer transition period for users to adapt to any necessary changes.
- Offer grandfathered rates or discounts for long-time users and early adopters.
We urge all Plex users to act now before these changes take effect. If you're considering a lifetime subscription, now is the time to purchase before the price more than doubles.

By signing this petition, we hope to send a clear message to Plex about the importance of maintaining accessibility and affordability for its dedicated user base. Let's work together to ensure that Plex remains the go-to platform for personal media management without pricing out its loyal community.
